Opis

With passion and precision, this compelling and controversial exploration of absentee fathers and their impact on the nation shows how the very ideal of fatherhood is under siege--as more than half of the nation's children are without a father in the home--and proposes a plan for rediscovering the goal of "a father for every child".

A study of the changing roles of men in family life examines the shift away from the ideal of fatherhood, discussing social ailments in terms of the lack of male family involvement.
